Posted April 11, 20159 yr Has anybody got any favourite "One hit wonders" To start off, here's a few of mine. B. Bumble and the Stingers "Nut Rocker" Zager and Evans "In the Year 2525 " The Archies "Sugar Sugar" And my favourite of all times. Norman Greenbaum "Spirit in the Sky"
April 11, 20159 yr Author A couple more. Thunderclap Newman "Something in the Air" Nina Simone "Ain't Got No, I Got Life"
April 11, 20159 yr Nina Simone... My mum is a huge fan and named me after her (even though it was her stage name). But then again, who wants to be called Eunice?!
April 11, 20159 yr Yep remember those all too well how about Mike Dinning "Teen angel" Larry Verne "Mr Custer The Tornadoes "Telstar" Jeannie C Riley "Harper Valley PTA"
April 12, 20159 yr I still have the original "In the year 25 25" single, it's under the stairs in a box with loads of other old records and I don't have a record player any more, was going to bin them but it was bought for me by someone I remember fondly.
April 12, 20159 yr Ace "How Long" although it was their only hit, Paul Carrack went on to have further hits with Squeeze "Tempted" & Mike and the Mechanics "The Living Years"

April 12, 20159 yr I got this completely wrong!! I thought it was about one hit wonders on YOC, like my favorite has to be. how can I make my 125 go faster

April 13, 20159 yr Is Nina Simone really a One-Hit-Wonder, though? "Feelin' Good" and "I Put A Spell On You" seem to get played and covered all over the place... Tubeway Army were apparently a 1HW, but only because they changed to reflect Gary Numan as a solo career. Still like their stuff, though. MARRS with Pump Up The Volume is pretty memorable.
April 13, 20159 yr Can tell that video is old as Jeremy Clarckson still has hair, I guess he must have been a bit short of cash to accept a job driving Mr blobby.
April 27, 20159 yr Drewpy No1 in 1973 I suspect hes lost the hair since www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yDC-k8UhaQ
